At Lawson, the wartime <a href="/wiki/117th_Tactical_Reconnaissance_Group" class="mw-redirect" title="117th Tactical Reconnaissance Group">117th Tactical Reconnaissance Group</a> was formed with the 157th along with the 160th TRS (Alabama ANG) with RF-80As and the 112th TRS (Ohio ANG) with RB-26C Invader Night Reconnaissance aircraft.

The original plan was to deploy the 117th to France and reinforce the United States Air Forces in Europe at a new base in France, <a href="/wiki/Toul-Rosi%C3%A8res_Air_Base" title="Toul-Rosières Air Base">Toul-Rosières Air Base</a>. However Toul Air Base was still under construction, and delays in France for several reasons forced the 117th to remain at Lawson AFB for over a year until finally receiving deployment orders in January 1952. </p><p>The 117th arrived at Toul Air Base on 27 January 1952. However at the time of the Wing's arrival, Toul AB consisted of a sea of mud, and the new jet runway was breaking up and could not support safe flying. The commander of the 117th deemed it uninhabitable and its flying squadrons of the wing were ordered dispersed to West Germany. The 112th TRS was transferred to <a href="/wiki/Wiesbaden_AB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wiesbaden AB">Wiesbaden AB</a>, the 157th TRS deployed to <a href="/wiki/F%C3%BCrstenfeldbruck_AB" class="mw-redirect" title="Fürstenfeldbruck AB">Fürstenfeldbruck AB</a>, and the 160th deployed to <a href="/wiki/Neubiberg_AB" class="mw-redirect" title="Neubiberg AB">Neubiberg AB</a>. The non-flying Headquarters and Support organizations were assigned to Toul. </p><p>The mission of the 117 TRW was to provide tactical, visual, photographic and electronic reconnaissance by both day and night, as was required by the military forces within the European command. The RF-80s were responsible for the daylight operations; the RB-26s for night photography. In June 1952, the 117th was involved in Exercise 'June Primer'. This exercise took place in an area bordered by a line drawn from Cherbourg to Geneva in the east and in the west by this Swiss, Austrian and Russian occupation zone borders. </p><p>The two RF-80 squadrons of the 117th had to complete a number of varying missions, including vertical photography of prospective paratroop air drop zones, oblique photos of the Rhine and Danube river bridges, vertical photography of the airfields of Jever, Fassburg, Celle, Sundorf and Gütersloh and various visual missions on behalf of the seventh army, including artillery adjustment for the 816th field artillery. The 157 TRS had had wire recorders fitted to five of its RF-80s prior to June Primer and these greatly facilitated the latter missions. </p><p>By July 1952 the facilities at Wiesbaden AB were becoming very crowded, and it was felt that the B-26's could fly from the primitive conditions at Toul. The 112 TRS returned to Toul, however the jet-engined RF-80s remained in West Germany until a new runway was constructed. </p><p>On 9 July 1952 the activated Air National Guard 117 TRW was released from active duty and inactivated in place and its mission was taken over by the newly activated <a href="/wiki/10th_Tactical_Reconnaissance_Wing" class="mw-redirect" title="10th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing">10th Tactical Reconnaissance Wing</a>.

By the mid eighties all the F-16s received by the 169th had undergone Pacer Loft modification bringing them up to the same block 10 standard. </p><p>With the equipment change to the F-16, the 169th was assigned to the air defense mission again under <a href="/wiki/Air_Defense,_Tactical_Air_Command" title="Air Defense, Tactical Air Command">Air Defense, Tactical Air Command</a> (ADTAC), which was established when TAC assumed the <a href="/wiki/Aerospace_Defense_Command" title="Aerospace Defense Command">Aerospace Defense Command</a> mission in 1979. In addition, although the F-16s weren't adapted to perform in the tactical close air support mission that the A-7D was utilized for, the 157th TFS did practice the conventional attack role with <a href="/wiki/Mark_82" class="mw-redirect" title="Mark 82">Mark 82</a> (Mk 82) and <a href="/wiki/Mark_84" class="mw-redirect" title="Mark 84">Mark 84</a> (Mk 84) gliding bombs.

The 169th adopted the new USAF "Objective Organization" in early 1992, with the word "tactical" being eliminated from its designation and becoming the 169th Fighter Group. Tactical Air Command was inactivated on 1 June, being replaced by the new <a href="/wiki/Air_Combat_Command" title="Air Combat Command">Air Combat Command</a> (ACC). </p><p>In 1995, the 157th Fighter Squadron became the recipient of brand-new Block 52 <a href="/wiki/F-16C/D_Fighting_Falcon" class="mw-redirect" title="F-16C/D Fighting Falcon">F-16C/D Fighting Falcons</a> coming straight from the Lockheed facility at Fort Worth, Texas. The 169th Fighter Group becoming the first AirNational Guard unit to receive these state-of-the-art aircraft. The mission profile of the unit changed in the way that they became a multi-role squadron being able to perform all kind of missions. More specifically they also received the HARM Targeting System being able to fly anti-radar sorties with the <a href="/wiki/AGM-88" class="mw-redirect" title="AGM-88">AGM-88</a> anti-radar missile. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg/220px-157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="145" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg/330px-157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/db/157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg/440px-157th_Tactical_Fighter_Squadron_-_3_F-16A_Formation_-_1989.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="660" /></a><figcaption>157th Tactical Fighter Squadron – 3 F-16A Formation – 1989</figcaption></figure> <p>The main mission profile of the squadron therefore changed to that of Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD). The 157th Fighter Squadron continues to fly the SEAD mission today. Also, on 11 October 1995 ACC and the National Guard Board authorized the status of the 169th to be expanded to the Wing level, and the 157th Fighter Squadron became part of the new 169th Operations Group under the new 169th Fighter Wing. </p><p>In mid-1996, the Air Force, in response to budget cuts, and changing world situations, began experimenting with Air Expeditionary organizations. The Air Expeditionary Force (AEF) concept was developed that would mix Active-Duty, Reserve and Air National Guard elements into a combined force. Instead of entire permanent units deploying as "Provisional" as in the 1991 Gulf War, Expeditionary units are composed of "aviation packages" from several wings, including active-duty Air Force, the Air Force Reserve Command and the Air National Guard, would be married together to carry out the assigned deployment rotation. </p><p>In February 1997, the <b>157th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron</b> (157 EFS) was first formed from 169th FW personnel and aircraft and deployed to <a href="/wiki/Doha_International_Airport" title="Doha International Airport">Doha International Airport</a>, Qatar, to join with other active-duty and national guard squadrons as part of <a href="/wiki/Operation_Southern_Watch" title="Operation Southern Watch">Operation Southern Watch</a>. This mission was initiated mainly to cover for attacks of Iraqi forces on the Iraqi Shi’ite Muslims. This made the 169th the first Air National Guard unit to deploy alongside active-duty Air Force units to comprise an Air Expeditionary Force (AEF). </p><p>The 157th EFS was activated again in January 2000 as a component of <a href="/wiki/Operation_Northern_Watch" title="Operation Northern Watch">Operation Northern Watch</a>; a <a href="/wiki/United_States_European_Command" title="United States European Command">United States European Command</a> Combined Task Force (CTF) who was responsible for enforcing the United Nations mandated no-fly zone above the 36th parallel in Iraq. This mission was a successor to <a href="/wiki/Operation_Provide_Comfort" title="Operation Provide Comfort">Operation Provide Comfort</a> which also entailed support for the Iraqi Kurds. The deployment was completed in April 2000. The 157th EFS was formed again in March 2001, when the unit deployed to <a href="/wiki/Prince_Sultan_AB" class="mw-redirect" title="Prince Sultan AB">Prince Sultan AB</a>, Saudi Arabia in a second Operation Southern Watch deployment.

Five more Block 52 F-16s from the active duty USAF would arrive at the base in 2006 and five more the following year. Then, in 2007, active duty Air Force personnel began arriving at McEntire as the base prepared to host and operate the largest Active Association unit in the nation's Combat Air Forces, bringing about 150 active duty personnel on board to work, train and deploy with the 169th. </p><p>In May 2010, the 169th became the first Air National Guard unit to support an AEF mission for a full 120 days. While simultaneously deploying Airmen for Operation Enduring Freedom, the wing deployed more than 300 Airmen in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom, during which the 169th flew more than 800 combat air patrol missions over Iraq from Balad AB and other locations.
